6-phenylpurines were identified as novel, ATP-competitive inhibitors of protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) from a fragment-based screen and were rapidly progressed to potent compounds using iterative protein-ligand crystallography with a PKA-PKB chimeric protein. An elaborated lead compound showed cell growth inhibition and effects on cellular signaling pathways characteristic of PKB inhibition.
通过基于片段的筛选,6-苯基嘌呤被鉴定为蛋白激酶B(PKB/Akt)的新型ATP竞争性抑制剂,并利用PKA-PKB嵌合蛋白通过迭代蛋白质-配体晶体学迅速发展为强效化合物。一种经过精心设计的先导化合物显示出细胞生长抑制作用以及对PKB抑制所特有的细胞信号通路的影响。
